Chapter 4 Page 44

Finally, a GOOD moral in my comic! Don't run towards people talking about murders. No matter how curious you may be.

I was actually suprised on the last page how many people thought that I'd suddenly made Dragonthing talk... I'd honestly not expected that. My bad I guess. If the texts difficult to read in the top panel, it's meant to be because it's quiet. Atticus himself is struggling to hear it somewhat.

This chapter's turning out to be quite long D: Hope no one minds. But that's kinda because this one chapters it's own arc really.

Atticus, you know that you are the only trainer that would recieve a charmander that has a tendency for insane actions. You're just that lucky. Unless Dragonthing has a different idea in mind, in which case, you now have a somewhat smarter charmander. But it's still asking for trouble. XD

...When did Dragonthing make friends with those two? At least, if he is running toward them, and them being those two guys... Well, there wasn't any cussing in there, so maybe it's not those two.
Atty looks worried in the first panel. It's kind'a funny. He acts like some big shot, killing pokemon and all that, and he's worried about one word.

Annnnnd the criminals from before re-enter the scene within the next few chapters (after all, they were hiding in the bushes, and wandered off into the woods). It probably isn't DT talking, as H0ly gave us a great clue with the "Char" in the previous strip. Rather, it's probably one of the two screwing with him.

Besides, I've always imagined the first thing DT would say to Atty (if he could) would be: #@%~$ YOU!.

Actually I always find it rather fun to run towards people talking about murder. You generally get to meet a genuinely insane person, get into a rather fun fight, sometimes you even get to save a life. Granted you yourself have to be slightly nuts to do so... But I am... so that last line doesn't really count.

Who says he cares? Option 1: Follow the fire-breather into possible danger. Option 2: Run away into forest full of angry Caterpie with crushed, burned Caterpie remains on his shoes and no fire-breather. At least one person who doesn't want to do anthing (too?) wrong, or potential encounter with Squishy's relatives. Difficult, but most people'd be with Atty on this one.

The "we" and "us" along with other elements of the conversation make me think that they might not be talking about Atticus and the Caterpie... My immediately resulting reaction is something to the effect of "OH GOD HAS SOMEONE MURDERED GEORGE NOOOOO."

For a minute there...At first, I thought that Dragonthing was talking to Atty! That would have been a nice twist...Dragonthing used to be so obedient until Atticus let him do his own thing, so I find it comical that Atty suddenly thinks he can order DT around.

Oh noes! Cute DT running towards danger!
Though I like how Atticus now seems to care for him :3 It's cute how he calls him by his name so often now. Also, the "we" part makes it feel like they're a team now.
